Hi Devan,

I’m just letting you know in this thread that I’ve responded to your question at the other thread linked below. :slight_smile:

Hi Kenneth,

This is accidental duplicate ticket and we can close this.
Is there any page/dashboard where we can check pending posts till any moderator approves, as this causes confusion/curiosity about the post status. After submitting the post, there should be an email notification sent to indicate that post is submitted and is currently in pending state.

Thanks and Regards,
Devan
